Car of the future may need joint effort to develop propulsion
Transportation Secretary Brock Adams warned that the car of the future requires a government industry effort similar to the moon project. He urged heavy government involvement in basic and advanced research due to OPEC pressures and a deteriorating world oil situation. He cited funding, engineering talent, and the need to reinvent the automobile for the 1980s and 1990s. He noted industry constraints and called for a cooperative, nationwide summit in Washington.
